CASTLE Premier Video For "Be My Ghost"
May 20, 2014, 10 years ago
Heavy metal cultists Castle have released a video for the track "Be My Ghost", featured on their third album, Under Siege, available via Van Records in Europe and Prosthetic Records in North America.
The album, which was recorded at Sharkbite Studios in Oakland, CA with producer/mixer Billy Anderson (CATHEDRAL, SLEEP, NEUROSIS), features the below cover artwork from Russian symbolic painter Denis Forkas Kostromitin (BEHEMOTH), with whom the band previously collaborated with on their Juno-nominated 2012 release Blacklands.
While holding onto their darkened and sophisticated classic metal roots, Castle further develops their sound with each of the eight tracks of Under Siege by adding punishing riffs and hauntingly melodic passages complimented by Liz Blackwell's full blooded vocals. Blackwell added, "On this record I wanted to summon the powerful and unrelenting feeling I get while playing live. I was casting out demons and stating my position in life."
